First log, CFLs & PHarvest?!

Well guys, theres some good things and some bad things going on right now.

I was away at a music festival for the past 4 days, and alot of things have happened.

We are in day 47 of flower. While I was gone the solo cup plant grew male flowers!!! It was also the one right infront of the fan so all of the lower parts of my plants were polinated. I kind of see it as a good thing also because it is the funkiest smelling plant ive ever had. It sort of smells like a strawberry jollyrancher! My Kali Mix clones from my mother took exactly a month and 6 days to show roots, so I'm thinking about just flowering it and starting with these hybrid seeds. Im excited to see how they turn out. If a female plant is only pollinated on some of the bottom stalks, will the whole plant stop producing THC?

Pic 1 is the overall growroom.

Pics 2-3 are the cola buds on one of the Kali's. I cant tell whether or not there are seed pods in here. When I first noticed that they seeded I cut all the unseeded buds off one plant.

Pics 4-5 is the butchered Kali Mix female and a seed pod on her.

Pic 1-2 The strawberry jollyrancher that produced the male flowers, they were at the bottom nodes that are still attached.

Pic 3 Where the jollyrancher plant seeded itself.

Pic 4 The cola to the Indica. No sign of seeds, but ive counted atleast 5-6 seeds on the lowest nodes.

Pic 5 The cola of the Sativa. Also no sign of seeds, but a couple on the lower nodes. These two plants were much taller than that rest.

Pic 1 - Seed pod on the sativa.

Pic 2 - Another sativa cola shot.

Pic 3 - The pharvest ladies, two new additions but I am very far behind on my cloning because while I was away the Kali's that FINALLY started showing roots were either dead or had that spider mite looking web on it.

Pic 4 - The mother box, the three little ones are doing great, but the mother is looking pretty bad, I gave her a good fert, but her clones just take too long to root. I'm gonna flower her after this batch is done.

Pic 5 - Alot of the leaves on the mother were dried up so I did a little pruning job, the very first leaf I pruned I found these eggs on it! Afterwards, I searched every little part of the plant and all my other ones but no signs anywehre else.


Well guys, my biggest concern is whether or not the colas of that Kali are seeded or not. I've already smoked some of the buds off the other Kali Mix and they are TASTY! Very decent smoke considering it was cut early and practically unflushed.

Hey man your ladies look great, mine are currently about 2-3 weeks from seed right now so im pretty excited because im just starting to get into maturity.

How old are your ladies from seed or Veg? how long do you usually veg from seed from? Just curious they look awesome, mine is bag seed but most of the best i have look alot like your kali's, even compared the seeds and they look the same too.

Good luck on the flower/harvest they look great.

The 5 bigger ones were all vegged for 4 weeks, and are now in day 47 of flower. The small ones were clones put into 24/0 until showing a decent amount of roots and then slapped into 12/12 immediately. An experiment I am doing, Im not really putting as much time into it as I should and I'm not happy with the results thus far. But when its all dialed in, I will have about 18-24 of those plants in the 20oz bottles with 3 coming out every week to harvest and 3 new clones going in at the same time. Also, there will be enough room on the side to have 1 or 2 plants vegged for 3-4 weeks to be thrown in there.

I just noticed that the pics I posted of the Kali colas are pretty blurry, so here are some clearer ones for you to see :thumbsup:

Day 45 of flower for the first batch (Week 6 day 3)

I cut the Kali's down a couple days ago, they are done drying and are curing, tested the smoke it is verry smooth, a real heady high. Everytime I harvest my Kali's (this is my 3rd batch) they smell different. This time it smells real similar to lemon balm! I love this strain because its ready so early and is just covered in crystals, but it takes about 1 month 1 week for any of my clones to root! The other strains take max 10 days. Anyways, dry weight on 1 was 22g's and other was 20 g's for a total of 42gs! My biggest harvest of Kali's thus far and the smallest plants at that. I left the bottom of one of the Kali's that had seeded, I figured the seeds wouldn't be ready until the bud started to deteriorate. (Am I right?)

On to the pics!

Pic 1 - Overall flower room.

Pic 2 - Indica cola, what do you guys think? How much time do I have left? Almost everyday I see fresh white hairs just bursting out at different places on the cola.

Pic 3 - Sativa cola, this looks to me like it has atleast 2 more weeks, I'm only going by the hairs thought so I could be completely off.

Pic 4 - Overall buds pic.

Pic 5 - What's left of the only seeded Kali, I plan on restarting the Kali/jollyrancher smelling plant strain in its place. I placed the old mother in flower on friday because of its poor motherly performance, maybe she'll make some good smoke instead!

I have a new batch of clones, mostly a new strain. Pretty soon 'The Pinks' will be covering my garden in large pink pistils! The future mothers aren't looking too bad either!

The 20oz bottle plants are short and stubby, in about week 4 so they should be fattening up in the next couple weeks. I let them grow too close to the light as I wanted them to stretch out a little more. I'm going to keep them further away in the next batch.


Pic 1 - 20 ozers

Pic 2 - Mother room, just topped the Indica.

Pic 3 - Clones, 1 Kali, 1 Indica, 2 Sativas, and 8 Pinks! 2 of the pinks are showing roots and 1 is about to go in dirt today.

Pic 4-5 - The jollyrancher smelling plant.

What are the pinks again? (sorry for not looking back)

Seeds don't take long to mature. Usually, if the bud is ready to smoke the seeds should be viable.


Good luck.
